Application med December 9;,1'925; serial no. 74,338..

The invention relates to windows and pro- `Iides for a close joint when the window is ;hut to exclude air, dust and dampness and to admit of adjustment of the window when required for ventilation and furthermore, to facilitate cleaning kwithout the inconvenience and hazard attendant upon the mounting of the sill to reach parts of the window when the sash receives sliding movement only. lVhile the drawings illustrate a preferred embodiment of theinvention4 it is to be undei-stood that in adaptingl the means to meet specific needs and requirements the design may be varied, and such other. changes in the minor details of'construction may be resorted to within the scope of the invention as claimed, without departing from the spirit thereof. j

For a full understanding` of the invention and the merits thereof, reference is to be had to the following description and the drawings hereto attached, in which- Figure 1 is a front view of. a. window illustrative of the invention and having parts broken away.

Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in the several views of the drawings, by like reference characters.A

The window frame or easement may be of f' any preferred construction, according to the specific adaptation and requirements and includes side stiles 1 and 2, an upper cross pieve 3 and a sill 4. The window frame or Casement may be supplied with any numbery and type of sashes and, in the present instance, it includes a lower sash 5 and an upper sash 6. The lower sash 5 is mounted to swing inwardly and downwardly from its upper edge and is hinged at its lower edge-to a transom 7. A suitable fastening..v is providedto lsecure the sash 6 when-closed. and' thc same comprises a plateor keeper 8 attac-hedl to the upper cross piece 3 and` azsp'ring actuatedlatch 9 attached to the top crossjba'r of the sash 6. obtained' between the transom l,Tandl thelbot.- tom cross-bari of the sash 6 by means of'a tongue 10i and a matching groove 1l',l the one being formed on the transom 7 andlthe groove 1"-1 being plowed in the bottom cross barof the sash 6. A rabbeted joint 12 re-` sults in a close fitl between the-top barof the sashy 6 and the cross piece 3.1 Metalstrips. 13 are attached to` the side stiles ofthe sash G'and longitudinall edge portions project and overlap companion metal strips 14 attached to the upper portion of the side Stiles 1" and 2,' thereby insuring a close joint at the sides ofthe' upper saslif6'.

,ltlhesasli` 5' is mounted' to receivel a vertical sliding movement andy a pivotal movement and' is counterbalanced by meansof a weight 15 andflexible connection 16 such as a chain or sash cord, which passes around a guide A close-joint is pulley 17 applied to the upper end ofthe side stile 2.

A guiderodv 18 is mounted upon thev side stile 2 and is attachedv tobraclrets 19' which in` turn are made fast in any determinate way to the stilev 2. Guide sleeves 20 attafchedI to a side stile ofthe sash receive the rod' 18k upon which they are free to slide and turn, thereby admitting of the' sash 5 having a free vertical movement and a horizontal swinging mov-ement. A groove 21,. similar to th-e groove 11, is formed in the side stile 2 to receive a matching tongue 22 projecting laterally from the hinge stile of the sash 5 so as to secure a close joint when the sash is shut. The side stile of the swinging edge of the sash 5 is rabbeted and ar metal strip 23 is attached thereto and an edge portion thereof projects across the rabbet to enter a groove 24 of the side stile 1 thereby insuring a close joint at the swinging edge of the sash 5 when closed.

A metal strip 25 applied to the top cross bar of the sash 5 coacts with a companion metal strip 26 attached to the lower side of the transom 7, both metal strips having edge portions projected and bent so as to overlap, as shown most clearly in Figure 2, thereby insuring a close joint between the lll swinging the same. A suitable lock is provided for securing the sash in closed position and, as shown, the same consists of a plate 29. attached to the `transom 7 .and a pivoted latch applied to the top cross bar of the sash 5. then the sash 5 is lifted to clear the stool it is .prevented :from swinging inward by means oi' a stop Slapplied to the stile l and this stop is disposed at one end of a lever 32 which is pivotally mounted intermediate its ends to .a stud projecting inwariflly from a iace plate which is let into the stile l, the opposite end of the lever 32 having a push button 34 associated therewith and mounted in a boss 35 projected laterally from a tace plate 33. When the stop 31 is pressed inwardly it clears the sash 5 and admits ofthe latter being swung inwardly, as indicated in Figure 4. A pin-36 depending from the side stile adjacent the hinged edge of the sash 5 is adapted to engage .any one of a plurality of openings 37 formed in a plate 38 attached to the sill 4 of the window frame, or casement, so .as to secure the sash at the required adjusted position. A stop `39 projected upwardly from the plate 38 limits the inward swing of the sash 5.

As previously stated, the top sash 6 is hinged to the transom 7 so as to swing inwardlyand downwardly from its top edge and when shut, the sash 6 may be supported by one of a plurality of stops 40 which are disposed in vertical relation upon the stile 2 which is recessed, as shown most clearly in Figure 6, to receive `the stops 40 and a face plate 4l to which the stops are pivoted. Each of the stops 40 projects laterally from one end ot' a lever 42 which is pivoted intermediate its ends toa stop 23 projected laterally from the face plate 41, the Vopposite end of the lever 42 being supplied withv a button 44. The stops 40 and buttons 44 yare adapted to operate through suitable openings in the face plate 4l and when the stops 40 are projected the buttons 44`are` retracted and when the stops 4Q are pressed inwardly the buttons 44 are moved outwardly in position to be conveniently pressed upon by a digit of the hand.

j It will be understood trom the foregoing that the invention may bereadily adapted to any type or construction of window and insures a close joint between the frame or easement and the sash, and at the Sametime, admits of the sash having eitheil a pivotal or acombined pivotal and sliding movement, so that ventilation maybe obtained,V

or the glass rendered easily accessible `for vcleaning andthe sash may be held in the required adjusted position.

`Having thus described the invention, I

Vclaim The combination with a window frame having ai fixed transom anda sash disposed above the transom and hinged thereto to swing inwardly and downwardly, of a plurality of vertically disposed stops located in a recess formed in a stile of the frame, a plate closing the recess of the stile, vertically'arranged levers pivoted intermediate their ends to the plate andhaving the said stops at one end thereof, and but-tons at the opposite end ot the levers lfor Vprojecting the stops into operative position.
